Over the weekend, we celebrated our year anniversary for moving into our new home. We have been SO happy with our neighbors and the sense of community. It really outweighed the annoyance of actually building a house. Which we will probably never do again.

We spent the weekend laying super low and watching a ton of basketball. Fun fact: I can’t stand basketball because all I hear is squeaking tennis shoes and the ball bouncing. I swear this time of year, I could go spend thousands at the mall, and not even have to sneak in a single shopping bag, because David wouldn’t look away from the TV. But really. We are all getting over one of the worst colds in the history of colds; but poor London is just not getting better. Which means no one is getting much sleep. So a low-key basketball-filled weekend was fine by me.

We did manage to finally finish decorating the last room in the house. It only took 12 months… So here are a few photos!

I like to imagine one day, we will be empty-nesters, and I’ll be able to sit here and read a whole book!

The green bottle is just a San Pellegrino bottle. We had the candle and faux white flowers from other seasonal decor, the white vase was super clearance at Hobby Lobby two weeks ago!
